The next couple weeks are going to prepare the students for the fall season, which will offer everything from basic acting technique, to professional choreography. Everything that is learned in class will be a combination of factual theatre design to Tim’s own personal philosophies, which he deems appropriate for any age! As an actor still trying to carve his own niche, Tim will continue to work hard and play hard!
